Functional Screening
Understand how theworker moves.
Functional screening adds another perspective to workplace decisions by assessing how an individual performs defined movements — complementing, rather than replacing, information about what the job requires.
Job Demands
What does the role require?
Movement Screen
How does the individual move?
Two different questions
Job demands tell you about the work. Screening tells you about movement.
A physically demanding role may require frequent squatting, reaching or overhead work. Functional screening helps add information about how an individual performs fundamental movements relevant to those demands.
Movement quality & capability
Capture objective information from defined movement tasks rather than relying only on subjective observation.
Repeatable screening
Use a consistent process across employees, locations or stages of the employee lifecycle.
More informed matching
Use screening alongside current job-demand information to improve the context around job-fit decisions.
How it works
A simple digital workflow with actionable output.
Invite
Send the participant the appropriate MotionTrack6 screening workflow.
Complete
Movements can be completed remotely or within an organization-supported process.
Review
Use objective movement information and scores as one source of workplace decision support.
Connect
Where appropriate, compare the screening context with job-demand information or other workplace data.
Where it fits
Use functional screening across key workforce moments.
Pre-employment
Use role-specific job demands and a defined screening process to support more informed pre-employment decisions.
Return to work
Add functional movement information to current job demands and professional restrictions where appropriate.
Injury prevention
Identify movement themes that may guide proactive support, education or deeper assessment.
Job matching
Compare the demands of roles with appropriate functional information to add structure to job-fit discussions.
Workforce programs
Use consistent screening across locations or teams where a standardized movement workflow is valuable.
Reassessment
Repeat screening over time when a program requires an updated view of functional movement.
Functional screening in practice
A screening workflow shaped around real recruitment needs.
Drake International Australia worked with Longitude6 to help shape, test and embed MotionTrack6 into recruitment workflows, bringing objective movement information into a practical screening process.
Connected Technology
The right technology for the right question.
Office Ergonomics
Self-guided workstation assessments for home and office environments.
Digital Job Task Analysis
Build current, usable job-demand information.
MotionTrack6
Technology-enabled functional movement screening.
Computer Vision

Important context
Screening supports decisions — it does not replace professional judgment.
Functional screening results should be interpreted within the purpose of the program, the actual job demands and any applicable clinical, employment, disability or legal requirements.
